Quantum dots are small semiconductor islands of nanometre size and are formed by tens to hundreds of thousands of atoms. Although this 'atomic background' represents a complex potential landscape to a conduction electron injected into a quantum dot, its behaviour can be described quite well by a simple particle-in-box model.
